@virginiae I am puzzled by your comment about the BCI only showing "modest additional benefit" from extended AI's. Have they changed the test? I was told by the company that it is a yes or no, nothing in between, no gray areas. So either benefit or no benefit.
My results were no benefit but high risk. My last choice!

There was benefit, but it was very small, only cutting the risk by a fraction of a percentage point. I had developed multiple autoimmune issues on Anastrozole and was miserable. So my oncologist didn’t think it made sense to chase that last fraction of a percentage point and neither did I. My issues have all resolved since I’ve been off the Anastrozole so for me it was the right decision.
